7.3  Entering the locator name 

The  instrument  is  frequently  made  identifiable  by  being  assigned  the  code,  name  or 
address  of  the  measurement  station.  In  order  to  check  or  change  the  existing  name, 
enter the main menu (FN key) and access the “Info” option (“8” key). This will display 
the existing name. The name will be presented in the first line of the LCD. 
To enter a new name, type the following command on the computer screen: 

Nazwa =..name.. 

where: 
..name.. – string of up to 20 alphanumeric characters (without Polish letters; you can 

use the “Backspace” key) 

Example:  entering  the  name  of  the  locator  by  typing  the  address  of  the  measurement 

station: ul. Poleczki 5  

Type the following command on the computer screen: 

Nazwa = Poleczki 5 

Press the ENTER key on the computer keyboard. 
To verify if the name has been correctly entered, access the “Info” option in the main 
menu. If the entered name is longer than 20 characters, the name of the instrument will 
consist of the first 20 characters.

Below, there are several examples with practical instructions on how to conduct some 
of the procedures discussed in this manual. All operations should be initiated only after 
the locator screen displays the run. 

 

Calibration procedure: Kalibracja (Calibration) option; Długo

p

ę

tli (Loop length) entry 

Note:  Locator  calibration  should  be  carried  out  30  minutes  after  the  device  is  turned 
on.  This  is  the  time  necessary  for  the  technical  conditions  inside  the  instrument  to 
stabilise. 

 

The following commands are described as separate instructions. Therefore, almost 

every  one  of  them  starts  with  entering  the  main  menu 

(FN)

,  and  ends  with 

leaving  by  pressing  the 

ESC

  key  multiple  times.

 

In  practice,  for  instance  if 

several  subsequent  commands  to  be  performed  are  included  in  the  Kalibracja 
(Calibration)  option,  there  is  no  need  to  leave  this  group  after  each  command. 
Enter the commands one after the other and leave after you complete the last one. 
The same is true for leaving the main menu (

FN

). We believe that as you use the 

instrument, everything will become clear. 

 

During calibration, it may turn out that the amplitude of the reflected measurement 

pulse  is  too  small  to  correctly  implement  the  command.  In  such  a  situation,  use 
the  Kalibracja/Parametry  impulsu>  (Calibration/Pulse  parameters>)  option  to 
increase  the  amplitude  of  the  measurement  pulse.  As  a  last  resort,  you  can  also 
increase the duration of the pulse. 

 

We remind that the factory PIN code is 123. 

1.

 

Place the 67LV23 port plugs on the ends of the monitored alarm loops in 67LV15 
boxes. 

2.

 

Disable automatic measurements. 

FN-> (2) 

 

3.

 

Set the number of monitored alarm systems.
